London trained sculptor and painter who was the wife of one of the partners in the hardware firm Drabbles, James Arthur Hall.

She is represented in the Claremont Museum collection by a figurine and some appliqu_. She exhibited black and white illustrations and watercolours with the West Australian Society of Arts in 1912 and 1913. Her 1912 black and white exhibit, The Garden of My Fancy, was described as worthy of comment, “one of the largest and most striking works in the division, showing a quiet terrace garden near a broad winding stream, with two figures on the seat and a third at the wall looking on with covetous eyes. The figures however are the weakest part of the study”.

She exhibited regularly with the West Australian Society of Arts. In 1928 she exhibited a watercolour, Dinner for Seven, a sculpture medallion, Nellie, and two models ,The Critics and Touchstone. In 1930 her entry was a watercolour The Waiting Place. In 1931 she exhibited watercolours of horses on the crest of a hill.
